Chapter 4: The Holy Maiden of Fire Worship, the first time she entered the wilderness
In the land south of the Yangtze River, in addition to the Jinguan City and many other prosperous cities, there are endless 100,000 mountains. Most of the mountains and rivers here are inaccessible, and the spirits and ghosts inhabit here.
In addition to such things that are difficult for mortals to see, there are thousands of poisonous insects and witches, and in the Zoroastrian religion, the most believe in witchcraft is the magic of witchcraft, Liu Qingyang came first this time, but it was just a poison in his body, so he had to visit with Han Xiangjun.
That Gu poison is not a powerful thing, but it is refined for Han Xiangjun's natal essence, if it is forcibly broken, then Han Xiangjun will also turn into red face and white bones.
Liu Qingyang looked at Han Xiangjun and frowned, "How do you know that I will definitely come with you? If I forcibly break that Gu worm, won't you lose your life in vain?"
Han Xiangjun said with a smile: "Childe said these things against his will. There is no murder in your eyes, and when you see a woman like me, you must be a person who pities a woman like me, how can you hurt my life?"
Liu Qingyang said again: "When the Gu was born, the family teacher was still there, how could you really not attack him?"
Han Xiangjun looked at Liu Qingyang and sighed: "Your master, I deliberately went down to Gu together, but I never thought that his murderous aura was my natal Gu, and he was also afraid and refused to enter the body." But your master is interesting, knowing that I am a Gu, but he doesn't say anything, and he orders you to come, just afraid that he will do it on purpose. ”
Han Xiangjun said that Liu Qingyang knew that Yuan Yingchou was such a person, how could he not see the trick of Gu?
It's just that I don't want to say this, I think it's Yuan Yingchou knows that this Gu worm is harmless, it's just emotional coercion.
The second is to give Liu Qingyang a chance to practice, not everywhere in the world, there are disputes, and now he can get involved in one place, with Yuan Yingchou's detached character, he thinks it is good.
However, Liu Qingyang was depressed in his heart, although this master was not a worldly master, he really had a strange personality.
Liu Qingyang looked at the poor mountain and said: "Why don't you talk about your Zoroastrianism, I will also know how sinister it is." ”
Han Xiangjun said: "Generally speaking, strange people and strange people, Gongzi thinks, can they be defeated by cultivating true techniques?"
Liu Qingyang looked at Han Xiangjun suspiciously, not knowing how to answer. Han Xiangjun shook his head and said, "Although Gongzi is a cultivator, he has experienced very little in the world, and he is too simple. It's all like a blank piece of paper, even if it has this temperament, I'm afraid that there are three points to imitate the Venerable Master!"
Liu Qingyang listened to these words, and somewhat agreed in his heart.
Since that day, Liu Qingyang has been rescued by Yuan Yingchou, and it has been seven years.
In the past seven years, Liu Qingyang has not been in contact with more characters except for the battle of Na Donglai, Na Suqing, Fang Tianqing, if Liu Qingyang is a little more mature, I am afraid that he will not leave his fate.
As for this temperament, Liu Qingyang mostly imitated Yuan Yingchou, that is, in the Xuanbo Heavenly Machine, he also learned that Yuan Yingchou stopped killing like that, as for whether he was really like this, Liu Qingyang didn't know.
At first, Liu Qingyang didn't think much about it, but when he was mentioned by this Han Xiangjun, there was something strange in his heart.
Han Xiangjun said: "Although I have only seen Gongzi for a short time, I have never seen such a character in this ten-mile painting boat. Childe's eyebrows are all pale, where does he look like a young man in his twenties? I'm afraid that Childe is cultivating in the mountains when he is young, and he has never eaten the fireworks in the world, so that's why he is like this. I see that your master left you here, but I am afraid that I want you to temper more in this red dust land. That temperament is the same as one person, and the likes and dislikes of the teacher have nothing to do with you. I'm afraid that Gongzi still needs to realize his own way before he can achieve something. ”
In fact, although this Han Xiangjun is not a cultivator, he has broken through this heart cultivation.
Liu Qingyang is also enlightened, what is the realm of the clear mind.
For those who are cultivators, then ascending the way, the gradual realization is to slowly wash away the lead of the person, transcend the world, practice calmly, and lay the foundation. It's just that those people who have cultivated the truth, after that gradual enlightenment, have never broken through.
Without him, it is all because of this clear state of mind, to understand one's own heart, to understand one's own way, what is the teacher's character, is the obstacle. With that way, you can also move forward slowly on the way to this cultivation. Liu Qingyang has been unable to enter the clear heart for a long time, that is, he has seen very little in the mortal world, and he has never had his own way.
Han Xiangjun does not lose the celebrity of the painting boat, and this statement will stop at the point, and will no longer be overly entangled. At that moment, he told Liu Qingyang about the situation in southern Xinjiang.
Southern Xinjiang is different from Jiangnan, and there are more fireworks and willow lanes in the south of the Yangtze River, which is full of people and lively. But this southern Xinjiang, all over the villages, the ancient customs are peculiar, and these 100,000 mountains, the mountains and mountains are connected, the roads are the same, there are more mountain beasts, poisonous moths and flying insects, that is, the snake and scorpion are no less than a thousand species, if ordinary people rush in, I am afraid that if they are not fed the snake and scorpion, they are lost in the valley.
Moreover, for thousands of years, a corner of southern Xinjiang has been one of the few desperate places in the world.
As for the Zoroastrianism, it is different from the cultivation sect in this world, although there are monks among them, they are different from ordinary monks.
It is full of witch Gu masters, and the operation method is demonic, and the Gu insect thing is difficult for ordinary monks to deal with.
In Zoroastrianism, there are sect leaders, left and right protectors, 12 great witches, 100 and 8 deacons, and thousands of sects.
The deacon and above are all monks, and if the witchcraft is against the enemy, the deacon will be on a par with the cultivator who has gradually realized it, and as for the great witch, he has the realm of clear mind perfection, and the left and right protectors are all strong in the soul, but the sect leader has never known.
It's just that Zoroastrianism doesn't cultivate immortality, but it has been renewed for decades.
As for the Gu worms, it is this south* that exists.
The power of Gu insects is different, and it is strange, some of them are like this Han Xiangjun's natal Gu, which represents their hearts and is willing to bow their heads.
Others, they suddenly suffer from a vicious disease, and their whole body festers and dies. Some, they pierce through the five and kill people in an instant. Even monks should be unable to guard against it.
The flow of witchcraft is even more strange, if it is powerful, but it is not obvious, most of the curse streams, in the middle, or the luck of the fallen, or the injury is aggravated, or suddenly killed, or riddled with evil diseases.
All kinds of peculiarities have made this Zoroastrianism in southern Xinjiang a vein of its own and has flourished for thousands of years.
It's just that Zoroastrianism is also the same as the mortal world, and the factional disputes within the sect are fierce.
One of them is the Returning to the Ancestors, which advocates the autonomy of southern Xinjiang, does not map other worlds, sticks to the forbidden land of the holy mountain, and is content. Han Xiangjun is this faction, he became the leader of the Zoroastrian Sect, and Han Xiangjun's adoptive father, Wu Shugu, is the leader of the faction.
The other faction is called the Goshawk faction, and this row advocates breaking through the southern Xinjiang and entering the Central Plains, forcing the emperor to recognize Zoroastrianism as the state religion. The Assassin he saw that day was one of the faction. At this moment, the leader of the Zoroastrian sect is also the leader of this faction.
Probably knowing this situation, the two of them have arrived at a village.
This village may seem small, but it is full of characteristics. Liu Qingyang clearly saw that this group of villagers in southern Xinjiang was the upper body, and only the woman was slightly wrapped in a white cloth on her chest.
Then take a closer look, the villagers are tattooed with a python, this python has wings on its back, and the air is full of sharp teeth. Seeing Liu Qingyang and the others coming in, the villagers were enthusiastic, but the language in their mouths was slurred, and Liu Qingyang could not hear clearly.
Han Xiangjun said: "These villagers said that visitors from afar are welcome, and if they are not in a hurry, they will stay and eat before leaving." ”
Liu Qingyang said with a smile: "Are the villagers in southern Xinjiang so hospitable?"
Han Xiangjun smiled: "Not really, it's just that this village believes in the ancestral sect and wants to be gentle." You don't want to see the tattoo is vicious, in fact, that thing is the beetle, in this southern Xinjiang, the beetle snake is a symbol of auspiciousness. The people of this village recognized the beetle snake as a totem, so they stabbed it on the body and asked the beetle snake to bless it. ”
When Liu Qingyang heard this, he also smiled, and asked Han Xiangjun to tell the villagers that he was willing to stay and eat together.
Seeing the arrival of outsiders, the village was very lively, and the priest ordered people to kill chickens and ducks as a hospitality.
Liu Qingyang was also curious about this village, so he wanted to take the gold leaf out to thank him. It's just that Han Xiangjun said that this village in southern Xinjiang is not as good as Jiangnan, if you accept hospitality, it means that you are willing to be friends with it, if you take the gold leaf out, then the villagers will be unhappy, thinking that this is humiliation.
Liu Qingyang no longer insisted, but he also took a few jars of good wine bought in the Jinguan City.
In the villages of southern Xinjiang, don't say that men, women and children are good to drink, such a gift makes the villagers more enthusiastic.
After three rounds of wine, the five flavors of the dishes, Liu Qingyang's heart was happy, that is, he mentioned the water heavy sword that day, and wanted to dance the sword.
Han Xiangjun is also quite interested, the ten-mile painting boat, this Han Xiangjun has always been singing, but I have never seen any son dance a sword for her. Besides, Liu Qingyang is a sword cultivator, and this sword dance is extremely beautiful when you think about it.
It's just that everyone will be wrong, although Liu Qingyang is a sword cultivator, but this Xuanyang swordsmanship pays attention to breaking through skill with strength, and when it really dances, it is mediocre.
The villagers in southern Xinjiang were also straightforward, and immediately said: "Your swordsmanship is not very good, but you can't repeat those few tricks." ”
Liu Qingyang laughed and said, "This is also true, my swordsmanship is a murderous swordsmanship, but when I see power, I don't look good!"
The villagers also laughed, and the guests and hosts were full of joy.
Han Xiangjun sighed with emotion, this corner of southern Xinjiang is really suitable for Liu Qingyang, his blank heart is the most suitable for this indisputable place.
Liu Qingyang raised a bowl of spirits, and before he could finish it, he heard the shouts of several people outside the village.
Liu Qingyang frowned and looked at Han Xiangjun. Han Xiangjun sighed and said, "The neighboring tribes are facing this village, I'm afraid it's going to be a war." ”
Liu Qingyang said: "War?"
Han Xiangjun said: "Yes." In addition to the Zoroastrianism in southern Xinjiang, there are two great gods, one is the great god of Wuxian, and the other is the great god of Chonglou. These two gods each represent different beliefs, so the market battle between the tribes is also a characteristic of southern Xinjiang. The people from outside just now are the people of the Wuxian Great God who are going to fight against the Chonglou Great God Tribe. ”
The village priest said a few words to Liu Qingyang, and then returned to the sacrificial hall, and the rest of the villagers also went to it.
Han Xiangjun translated: "That sacrifice allows you to leave quickly, the war between the tribes has always been caused by countless casualties, don't get involved, otherwise there will be danger." ”
Liu Qingyang also sighed and left with Han Xiangjun.
It's not that Liu Qingyang doesn't care about the life or death of the villagers, but this kind of situation is the norm, and it's useless to care!
